About Ross
Passionate about creating meaningful digital experiences that bridge the gap between design and technology.
My Story
I'm a designer and developer who believes in the power of thoughtful, user-centered design. With a background spanning both creative and technical disciplines, I approach every project with a holistic understanding of what makes digital experiences truly exceptional.
There's something magical about making things for people to use. When someone interacts with software I've built and it just works - when they look at me like I'm some kind of wizard - that feeling is unbeatable. It's not about being flashy or complex; it's about creating something that feels right, that makes sense, that helps people do what they need to do.
My journey started with simple curiosity about how things work and a desire to make them work better. I love the process of taking an idea, breaking it down, and building it back up into something real that people can actually use. When I'm not crafting digital experiences, you'll find me exploring new technologies, experimenting with emerging design trends, or sharing knowledge with the design and development community.
Hobbies
Being in Nature
Finding inspiration and clarity in the outdoors. Whether it's hiking, camping, or just taking in the fresh air, nature helps me stay grounded and creative.
Working on Motorbikes
Getting my hands dirty with mechanical work. There's something satisfying about understanding how things work and fixing them with your own hands.
Making Software
Building things that people can use and enjoy. Whether it's a personal project or helping others, creating software is where my passion truly lies.
Snowboarding
Carving through fresh powder and pushing my limits on the mountain. There's nothing quite like the feeling of freedom and flow on a snowboard.
My Approach to making things
Continuous Learning & Adaptation
Staying curious and open to change helps me learn, adapt, and deliver better results.
Good design builds trust
Every design decision is made with the user's trust in mind. Clean, intuitive interfaces that users can rely on.
Keep it simple
Focus on what matters most. Remove complexity and create solutions that are easy to understand and use.
Ask the people using it
User research is at the heart of good design. Talk to real users to understand their needs and pain points.
Prioritising business impact
Prioritising business impact over design for design’s sake.
It shouldn't have to be explained
Great design is intuitive. If users need instructions to understand how something works, it's not designed well enough.
